CAnon SD400 sticks in movie mode

\015 Almost every time I use this camera now if I go to take a picture it will be stuck in movie mode. \302\240There is a slider to switch between photo, movie and review pictures which I assume has become loose internally. \302\240It is very annoying as I usually have to turn the camera on and off a few times in order to shoot a photo. \302\240Is there any way to get this repaired? \302\240It functions perfectly well in all other aspects.\011\011\011\011\015

When you slide the switch on my Canon SD400 to the picture mode, it sometimes shows that it is in movie mode instead

I dropped my Canon sd1000 and now the mode switch wil not allow me to see images that have been taken nor does it switch to movie mode. Images are shown as I take pictures and immediately after. Their doesn't appear any stops on the mode switch, Short of sending it back to Canon is their some other fix?

Unfortunately there is no easy fix, the mode switch has been damaged or there is a crack in the systems control board where it is solded to, the only option is a Canon repair station. ...

Canon SD400 I dropped my SD400 and it will turn on, but the shutter will not retract. However, the screen comes on in color and then goes black and says no image. I can access the menu screen while on the picture taking mode. If I move to anything else the camera beeps three times and turns off. What should I do? Can it be fixed? Should I take it somewhere to get it fixed... and where can I take it?

Hi, I have a Canon IXUS 95IS camera.. For some reason, when I attempt to take a photo, the LCD screen isn't displaying what is actually in view? In movie mode it comes up on the screen but when i flick it to Auto or camera mode, the screen goes black and only shows the little icons... Weirdly enough, it still takes the picture but the really annoying thing is it doesn't show up on the screen what you're taking a photo of so it makes it really hard for the person taking the actually photo... can

I have a Canon G12 camera whic worked fine for six months. Recently many of the photos were far overexposed, but there was no clue anything was wrong before I took the picture. The problem was intermittant at first, but now its solid. Movie mode still works fine

This is a wise move considering the cost to repair them tend to be high, and warranty can be a life saver in this case. The problem you are describing appears to to be in the lens housing where the sensor is located, the pug on the sensor board has b ...
